UNC--Greeley
You have not dug far enough. I served on the TKE board 'til it's
closure. The chapter had for years been tops on campus and it
had upwards of 120 actives in the '50s. Sig Ep was the big rival;
they are gone now--maybe they will return in the future, too.
The TKE's fell on hard times, split; SAE and Sigma Chi came on and
managed to replace us...There were three former TKE field men on
the UNC board. We managed to get the chapter debt-free, got
grades up, size to about 50, but the last two years there were a
goodly number of alcohol incidents, hushed up by the school, and
the brouhaha, fights and computer thefts were the last straw. It
was us, the Board, who closed 'em up, after over 50 years at the
school, and 999 initiates. We will likely return, but UNC is not a
model Greek system. Housing is horrible.
I've been advisor, board member, founder or visited over 150 Teke chapters....Greeley was the only one I voted to close. Sad.
Perhaps it will some day emerge, but not soon.
